Restore Natural Habitat in Your Community

Birds need a place to live and many bird habitats are disappearing. City parks and open spaces are natural places for birds. Work with your community to recreate the habitat that once existed in your area.

Welcome to The Birdhouse Gallery

Who is first birdhouse builder

Building a nest box for wild birds can be one of the most gratifying projects a person can undertake. When placed in the proper habitat, a nest box or bird house may be occupied, defended, and filled with eggs almost immediately. The best nest box are simple, without elaborate details, void of paint and embellishment. The first nest box builders and skilled construction pros were woodpeckers, making homes by excavating cavities in tree trunks. By observing wood...

What You Can Do ?

Everyday Ways You Can Help Birds
The Nature Conservancy’s Migratory Bird Program works to protect critical habitat that birds need for nesting, raising their young, spending their winters and resting during migration. Everyone can help to assist in smart bird conservation. Here are a few things you can do right now and every day to help protect birds.

Need to Know

Avoid Chemicals

Birds may accidentally eat pesticide and herbicide pellets or prey that have been poisoned. This can kill a bird or have toxic effects on their own health and that of their growing embryos, including deformation or suppressed immune systems.

Reduce Energy Use

Riding your bike or walking reduces your carbon footprint and prevents pollution of bird habitats. Switching off the lights in your house not only shrinks your energy bill, but can also help prevent birds from colliding with your windows.

Support Conservation.

Join a bird club or other conservation organization to learn more and contribute to protecting birds. Volunteer with organizations that preserve habitat and help birds.

Be a Citizen Scientist

Many projects need helpers to gather data on birds and their habitat. Contact your local Nature Center, library or conservation organization to volunteer.

Take a Friend Bird Watching

Invite a buddy and see if you can spot more birds together.

Get Outdoors and Enjoy Nature

You can appreciate the bird habitat near your home. Find a local park and go for a walk or just stroll around your neighborhood.

Teach Others About Birds

Talk to your friends about birds and start a club in your community to teach people about the challenges birds face. The more people know, the more they can do to help.

Plant Native

Native plants provide food, nest sites, and cover for birds.

Buy Bird Friendly Products

You can help preserve bird habitat in Mexico, Central and South America and the Caribbean by buying shade-grown coffee and chocolate. Shade coffee farms, which imitate native forests, have many more bird species than sun coffee farms.

Slow Down When Driving

Cars kill millions of birds each year. Driving slowly gives you more time to respond if there is
an animal in the road and gives the animal plenty of time to get out of the way.

Leave Fledglings Where You Find Them

Fledglings may spend several days on the ground after they leave the nest before they are able to fly. You can help by keeping people and pets away, so their parents can continue to care for them. If you think a bird is truly an orphan, call a rehabilitator for instructions.

Keep Your Distance

Birds need space for feeding, nesting, and other daily activities. Approaching too closely may cause them to become nervous and deplete much-needed energy reserves. During the nesting season, it may even result in loss of eggs or young to predators.

Restore Natural Habitat in Your Community

Birds need a place to live and many bird habitats are disappearing. City parks and open spaces are natural places for birds. Work with your community to recreate the habitat that once existed in your area.

Recycle

Anything you recycle reduces litter and saves resources. Get creative! You can make a bag from used juice containers and bird feeders from old dishes and plastic bottles.

Use Cloth Grocery Bags and Reusable Bottles

Birds that mistakenly eat plastic trash can become ill or even die. Avoiding plastic bags and bottles reduces plastic pollution and conserves resources.

Don’t Buy Illegally-Caged Birds

Selling wild-caught birds as pets is illegal. Buy only captive-bred birds. Make certain that the breeder or pet store is reputable

Clean Your Bird Feeders

Dirty feeders can spread disease. Disinfect and clean out old seed from feeders frequently and put fresh water in your bird bath every day.

Protect Birds From Pets

Unleashed dogs and outdoor cats can harm birds by disturbing, chasing, and even killing them. Keeping your cat indoors and your dog from straying saves millions of birds each year.

Prevent Bird Collisions with Your Windows

Collisions are one of the most frequent causes of bird deaths. Birds see nature reflected in the window or mistake houseplants inside the building for outdoor plants and fly into the glass. Putting up curtains or window decals helps make the window visible to birds.

Mission: conserving birds and their habitats through science, education and by placing Birdhouses, Bird Feeders, Bird Baths targeting from individual to large forest area.
